Metro Bank: Pledges support for improving financial literacy

  • Metro Bank award-winning people-people, and to us, there’s nothing more important than going above 
  • One of the signatory companies pledging support for the National Literacy Trust’s Vision for Literacy Business Pledge
  • Poor adult literacy skills mean that one in seven adults in England have the reading skills of a nine to eleven year old
  • Poor literacy skills limit job market opportunities and deny parents the opportunities to support their children’s learning
  • The National Literacy Trust is dedicated to raising literacy levels across the UK
  • The trust works to improve the reading, writing, speaking and listening skills in the UK’s most disadvantaged communities
